Yo, yo, what up?

0:03.0

Chris Sims unbuttoned. Yeah, I got him giggling early already. He doesn't know what he's in for yet. Special guest today, Rodney Harrison. Okay, what up, Rodney? You know you're allowed to swear on this. He doesn't want to swear. He's all fucking scared. He doesn't know what to do. Are you serious? Oh, gosh, yes. I'm coming in hot with you. Either way,

0:39.9

excited to have you. What we're going to do today is really, I want to jump around the

0:43.8

NFL, division by division, kind of just hear your thoughts. Let's just talk some ball and see

0:49.0

where it goes. But first, okay, I think I want to talk about the New England Patriots, all right?

0:55.0

The evil dark lords from New England.

0:57.6

First off, congrats on getting the Hall of Fame.

0:59.9

Man, that was awesome, man.

1:01.1

Just for the fans to vote me in after playing there six years,

1:05.3

obviously Mike Vrable and Richard Seymour had consideration.

1:08.7

But it meant a lot to me because I played my heart out.

1:28.1

I played extremely tough and just wanted to be part of a team. And that's the ultimate team when you started talking about teams. What? I mean, it doesn't get any better, at least, you know, other than the Yankees, okay? I'll give New England second place there. Respect to the Yankees, no doubt. Respect. But unbelievable. You had an unreal run there.

1:46.9

And hey, Belichick, he comes out, says you should be in the Hall of Fame. You're that type of player. I agree. So I'm there with them. But long overdue, really, for you to be in that Patriots Hall of Fame. That's really awesome, bro. It really is. It is, you know, and the thing about it, man is, you know, everyone looks at our team as being just kind of Tom and Bill Belichick.

2:18.3

I heard you say this. And it really upsets me because, not just because of me, but other guys that came along before me, Willie McGinnis should be in a Hall of Fame. Yes. Richard Seymour. H. H. Mike Vrable was an excellent player. Not saying he should be in a Hall of Fame, but an legend. A legend. An NFL legend. Absolutely. Kevin Falk, all these guys, man, you know, we worked really well as a unit. Yeah. And it wasn't a bunch of individual guys, man. It was awesome, man. Great experience. Yeah, I'm with you there. It's actually, people think I'm a Brady and Belichick hater sometimes because I say that and it's not a disrespect to them.

2:18.0

It's more about I have respect for you guys. I played that team one year. You were hurt, thank God, in that game. But I mean... How many picks did you throw? Zero. Really? How many picks do you have in your career? More than I threw touchdown. That's why I asked. I did the research. No, that year, that was a lot of fun.

2:37.3

Oh, we got somebody come in. Ready for you down on set. Okay. Sorry about that. Yep. Yep. See, so me and Rodney are off shoot today doing a little commercial for Sunday night football. I don't know if we were allowed to say that, but either way, yes, we're doing it. So he might have to stop, and we might have to stop for a second to pick this back up.

2:54.1

We'll be back because Bobby Big Time here has to go voice something over.

2:59.8

Big thanks to Rodney Harrison. I wish we could have had more time with him, but like I said,

3:04.8

he's big time, and we had a commercial today to do for NBC.

3:08.9

So it had to get cut short, all right?

3:10.8

But more importantly, I went out to Cleveland, Ohio this past week.

3:16.3

And, man, I'm a lucky guy right now, the last month.
